The little girl then asked him "Why is that man wearing a dress?" When he told me this I laughed so hard. I know the little girl and I could picture it happening. Her aunt and her cousin then proceeded to explain that it was a kilt, and that it was a Scottish thing. I can't wait until the next time I see that little one. I'm going to ask her if she liked my "dress". LOL.
That just cute...I catch that a lot from kids with their moms and dads...just makes me chuckle...I'll walk by a car in a parking lot (kilted of course) and just as I pass I'll hear in a little voice from the open window of the car... "Why is that man wearing a skirt?" or "look, that man is wearing a skirt!!"...
its funny how from an adult those types of remarks seem to annoy but from a child its just cute and amusing.
